I think I get it from my Dad. When I see things that I like for a good price, I tend to buy them. Even if Christmas or my b-day is coming up. So... when I found a couple books today on amazon.com that I've been wanting, Bob let me buy them for myself as an early b-day gift. Has anyone read Captivating or The Sacred Romance?
I am especially excited about reading Captivating. I've wanted to read it for some time, but I haven't had much free time to read in the last couple years since starting the MOT program. Hopefully during spring break I'll get a chance. I hadn't planned on purchasing The Sacred Romance, but the title and description caught my eye as something that I could definitely relate to and benefit from.
I'll try to give a quick book review for anyone interested in these books after I read them. I'm curious though, those of you who have read them, what did you think?
I have "Captivating" (actually the chaplain has my copy right now...haha) and have read it multiple times. Pastor Les actually gave it to me as a graduation present. I really like it. Sometimes it tends to focus on issues that I have not experienced such as abuse, but I think that there are things in there that everyone can identify with, and that's the book that made me realize that it's ok and even GOOD to embrace femininity and that parts of the feminine character are essential to understanding God and His character. Anyway, a good read that I would reccomment. "Wild at Heart" the companion text for men is supposed to be good too but I have yet to read it. And I have heard that "The Sacred Romance" is really good. Currently I am reading "Crazy Love" give to me by a friend. Not too far in yet, but also supposed to be really good. Let me know how you like the books!
